chewbacca thinks: Ron's watch that he received for his birthday 
bears a likeness for a certain watch that we see DD checking in the 
opening chapters of book one.  The planets around the edges etc. put 
me in mind of time-turners. Could be that we have to go back and 
find out what happened in the "missing 24 hrs." May be important to 
his Horcrux hunt, or maybe not. 

chewy-hopes it was his birthday, and not Christmas.  I can't get to 
my copy of HBP at this moment.
